My laptop, a Dell Latitude E6400 with Win10 installed does not seem to have WiDi installed on it. Is there any way that I can install this adapter on my laptop to allow me to wirelessly cast my laptop onto my LG smart tv.

It does not look like you will be able to do that:

My laptop is only about 2 years old. The intel label only says Intel CORE i7 vPro, but no WiDI can be seen any where. Can I replace the Intel Processor that has WiDi built in or would it be cheaper to just replace the Laptop. How woulf I be sure thet the new laptop has a processor that has WiDi built in. Any recommendations?/
If it has no WiDi sticker, then it probably does not support WiDi. A processor upgrade might be problematic, see the links below:

Note that in one of the links I posted previously, it mentions that Intel is no longer supporting their WiDi software. While you may be able to find a new Dell laptop that can support it, it may not be the best solution for wireless screen usage.
I was not able to find any current Dell laptops that specifically listed WiDi capability, you may have to contact Dell to find one.
Any other way that I can wirelessly project my screen.
If you check the last 4 links I posted in post #2, there are several wireless ways to project your laptop screen.
I just purchased a Nyruus NPCS549 WIRELESS ADAPTER from Amazon for $199, received it overnight, installed it in less than 5mins. It works like a charm, fantastic. I will recommend it.

Looks like it has decent ratings, and not too expensive.
